Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
this is a "strategic" guess
There are 187 nickels and 66 dimes in the jar.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Total coins = 253
Value of coins = $15.95 = 15.95*100 = 1595 cents
Value of each nickel = 5 cents
Value of each dime = 10 cents
According to given statement;
x+y=253 Eqn 1
5x+10y=1595 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 5

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

Dividing both sides by 5

Putting y=66 in Eqn 1

There are 187 nickels and 66 dimes in the jar.

Area shaded = Area big circle- Area of small circle;
200 pi= pi•(2x)^2 -pi•6^2;
200pi= pi•4x^2 -pi•36;
200pi=pi•4(x^2 -9) divide both sides by 4pi;
50=x^2 -9; So x=sqrt(59)~7.68cm
